mnemon

Workflow

1. Remember: mnemon remember "<fact>" --cat <cat> --imp <1-5> --entities "e1,e2" --source agent
   • Diff is built in: duplicates are skipped, conflicts are auto-replaced.
   • Output includes action (added/updated/skipped), semantic_candidates, and causal_candidates.
2. Link (evaluate candidates from step 1 using judgment):
   • Review causal_candidates: link only when the memories are genuinely causally related.
   • Review semantic_candidates: high similarity alone is not enough; skip unrelated keyword matches.
   • Syntax: mnemon link <id> <candidate> --type <causal|semantic> --weight <0-1> [--meta '<json>']
3. Recall: mnemon recall "<query>" --limit 10

Guardrails

• Use memory only when it can materially improve continuity or task quality.
• Do not store secrets, passwords, tokens, private keys, or short-lived operational noise.
• Categories: preference, decision, insight, fact, context
• Edge types: temporal, semantic, causal, entity
• Max 8,000 chars per insight.
